    Pork Loin a la baby back ribs?

    I probably wasn't clearer in my initial post. I have done pork loin a bunch. I just wanted to try a different method just to see what would happen. Not a big deal either way. :) It is still moist and tasty!

    Pork Loin a la baby back ribs?

    Ok, so... didn't get to the fall apart stage and that's ok. I did 2 hrs unwrapped...about an hour and a half wrapped and pulled it at 150. Let it rest for about 20 min. or so and it'll work. I'll probably not do it this way again because I didn't get the bark I wanted, but DEFINITELY eatable...

    No worries in the least! :)

    Pork Loin a la baby back ribs?

    Just for clarity: I'm not doing ribs at all. This was just a question/pondering about pork loin technique. I've done pork loin before very successfully...just thought I'd shake things up a bit. :)

    Pork Loin a la baby back ribs?

    That was my concern as well, but I wonder if the wrapping will help with that. My guess is that the last step likely won't be needed at all or even a shortened version...maybe 2-1.

    Pork Loin a la baby back ribs?

    I've been toying with the idea of taking a half pork loin that I have and preparing AND cooking like I would my baby back ribs. Has anyone done this? I usually do ribs by 3-2-1(though it's never 1 at the end) and they are fall off the bone, the way I like them. I wonder what would happen if I...

    Smoked Scallops (and shrimp)

    So, it's the hot and fast I may need some help with. How hot and (understanding that timing is a bit variable), approximately, how long?

    Smoked Scallops (and shrimp)

    Looking for a little direction here... I want to smoke these on my pellet smoker, but i'm not planning on searing and plan on seasoning with some Old Bay. Need some advice on temp and for about how long? TIA!

    HELP! Camp Chef smoker now won't turn on!

    ah... i did NOT know that. Clearly, the dude at the Depot didn't either. :) I may swing by and try that on Monday.

    HELP! Camp Chef smoker now won't turn on!

    Not GFCI, power to the outlet is fine and is the power outlet I've been using since we moved in here. No luck with the fuse so far..nobody seems to have it in stock as it's 4A, not 1, 3, or 5. Had to resort to oven to cook. :( Will be calling Camp Chef tomorrow. Thanks to those who reached out!

    I don't think so, but... good point. I'll check that out.

    HELP! Camp Chef smoker now won't turn on!

    I went to start a cook today, plugged everything in, clicked the power on, the display came on for a second, then shut down. Now nothing. At all. I looked at the fuse...it LOOKS ok, but I'm going to bring it to the Depot to check it out. Any other suggestions?? Kinda desperate here.

    Cold smokers

    I've got a Camp Chef pellet smoker, but really, when I cold smoke cheese, I just use a tube and use the Camp Chef just as an enclosed space. And it was awesome. :)

    Camp Chef PID

    Hey, so I know that the PID shipping with Camp Chef right now is the wifi PID...I saw one that had 4 probes. Is that available for sale separately? Otherwise, have folks been using 3rd party PIDs? To be clear, there's nothing wrong with what I have, but the wifi/phone app aspect of it is...
